Groups are instructed to follow the 12 Steps, 12 Traditions, and 12 Concepts as modified from Alcoholics Anonymous. It is designed to provide on-going help, not to be a week-end “hit-and-run accident.”

When in an atmosphere of Christian love and acceptance, people meet each week and become openly honest with each other, in a “safe place,” where anonymity and confidentiality are respected

Participants are asked to share their experience, strength, and hope without “cross-talk” and judgmentalism

They are not to try to fix each other, rather they are to “let go and let God” do for them what they cannot do for themselves

Most important, they are invited to recognize that Jesus Christ is the Highest Power

Recovery and freedom from obsessive thoughts, compulsive actions, habitual behaviors and spiritual separation is the hoped for result
